Tasting Notes from the Curator

Maxim’s Whole Salmon in Wooden Box is an epitome of gourmet excellence, appealing both to connoisseurs and those new to luxury dining. The salmon exhibits a cornucopia of rich flavors, seamlessly blending buttery richness with subtly sweet undertones thanks to its skilled smoking and curing processes. It stands out with a remarkable balance of rich umami flavors, providing a sensory experience unparalleled in its category. What differentiates this salmon is its delicate smokiness, which enhances rather than overwhelms the fish’s natural flavors, resonating with traces of the ocean’s freshness. Its texture is equally compelling, achieving a high level of tenderness through precise preparation and ensuring a flakiness that indicates the utmost quality. The retention of moisture from the curing process translates into a luscious mouthfeel that truly elevates the salmon, making every bite a pleasure. Maxim’s has mastered the art of intertwining traditional methods with refined flavors, solidifying its salmon’s place as a luxury food staple worth relishing on special occasions.

Pairings & Suggestions

Maxim’s Whole Salmon in Wooden Box is versatile, perfect for enhancing both simple and sophisticated dishes:

  • Bagels & Cream Cheese: Slice the salmon thinly and layer on a toasted bagel generously spread with cream cheese, garnished with capers and dill.

  • Charcuterie Boards: Pair with an array of crackers, assorted cheeses like Brie and goat cheese, and accompaniments like cornichons and grapes for a refined appetizer.

  • Pasta: Integrate into a creamy pasta dish with fettuccine, parmesan, and fresh herbs to amplify the richness.

  • Salads: Top fresh arugula and avocado salads, adding a touch of lemon juice to the mix, which brightens the dish while complementing the salmon’s flavors.

Serve with a crisp white wine or a herbal gin cocktail to enhance the savory qualities of this luxurious salmon.
